Game on. 1210 baby! back to the top! that was not easy, 50 more and I got the 3rd revive or live saver thing.

I can go to the shop and everything that works fine but it crashes instantly when I try to play Edit: seems to be ok now worked after 5 or so tries it kind of lags a bit though EatingMyHat Well-Known Member May 16, 2012 94 0 0 #9 EatingMyHat, Jul 3, 2012 Sorry to hear that. The lowest devices that we test are 3GS and iPad v1 both should be a bit older compared to an iPod 4 gen. Please try to reset the device and if you will expiriance any additional issues, send me a PM and I'll try to help you resolve it. JCman7 Well-Known Member Jul 6, 2009 2,548 3 36 Mechanical Engineering NY #10 JCman7, Jul 3, 2012 Thanks it's good now the only thing that crashes is when I try to go to the arcade. But at least I can play the game now. It's a pretty fun game! It's much harder then I expected so I'm really gonna need to practice o0smoothies0o Well-Known Member Jun 28, 2012 201 0 0 #11 o0smoothies0o, Jul 3, 2012 I'm in. GameCenter name: o0smoothies0o. I also reviewed on App Store as I<3amberlancaster EatingMyHat Well-Known Member May 16, 2012 94 0 0 #12 EatingMyHat, Jul 3, 2012 Thanks for the review! Here are some tips: It is easier to swipe up with the same finger that you tap, the swipe can be a short one, but need to go up and not side ways When you see the warning sign, save your second jump and let the shark get close, don't get stuck landing down on a shark with no jumps When you activate triple jump power up it immediately triggers a jump, it helps to do a last minute save from an upcoming shark Seagull don't just take your shells, you can't continue your jump after getting hit, make sure to swipe them away especially if shark is coming You can use one life saver in the first 600m, two in the first 1260m, three in 1980m and so on - each life saver will recharge your power ups (assuming you got some in your inventory) Time your power ups well, each is active for a preset number of seconds, it means that using the kite later in the run will gain more distance Have fun, GR Major 4 Apps Well-Known Member Jan 19, 2012 48 0 0 #13 Major 4 Apps, Jul 3, 2012 I'm in! I must say, this is a great game. Well done, EatingMyHat. BlazingApplications New Member Mar 28, 2011 3 0 0 Developer #14 BlazingApplications, Jul 3, 2012 I'm in. My game center name is BlazingApplications. I also reviewed your game. EatingMyHat Well-Known Member May 16, 2012 94 0 0 #15 EatingMyHat, Jul 3, 2012 The competition is heating up, Headshot9 is still in the lead but it seems that some of the others are getting close. What will happen once someone will get to the 3rd life save it will jump to 1400m and more due to the power up recharge. BTW... my personal record is ~1130m... Ok, here is another code for all of you, this time it is a small package of various power ups: Go to the Info Screen ( '?' ) Tap on the Lock symbol at the top right corner Use code: 44783 Thank you for playing Wild Surf and I hope you are having fun with it! GR o0smoothies0o Well-Known Member Jun 28, 2012 201 0 0 #16 o0smoothies0o, Jul 3, 2012 EatingMyHat, I made it to 1,348 but I didn't receive 3rd life saver. I had plenty (18) in inventory at the time too. I did make it to 600 without using the first life saver so maybe that glitched it or something? EatingMyHat Well-Known Member May 16, 2012 94 0 0 #17 EatingMyHat, Jul 3, 2012 Checking now, I might have the number wrong. But, very impressive, it will be very hard to beat. In any case, even if the number is higher, it is still equal grounds for everyone. Impressive. o0smoothies0o Well-Known Member Jun 28, 2012 201 0 0 #18 o0smoothies0o, Jul 3, 2012 Yeah it was a little higher, I just hit it, new score 1888. This game is a lot of fun. EatingMyHat Well-Known Member May 16, 2012 94 0 0 #19 EatingMyHat, Jul 4, 2012 You are right, it is higher, but I actually think that 1260 should make more sense. We might change it in an update, but only after this contest is done. Very impressive score, you really opened a large gap from headshot and the other guys. I'm happy to hear that you like the game, now lets see if someone will put your $25 at risk JCman7 Well-Known Member Jul 6, 2009 2,548 3 36 Mechanical Engineering NY #20 JCman7, Jul 4, 2012 So close to cracking 1000!
